This is honestly brutal. What happened to our defense? Where did everyone go?

Did anyone besides us manage to drop 40 points during the championship?😢

So, someone actually has a monitor 🤣

But definitely not this Amazon one!!! 😁 😁

Betty Rivera14 said:Honestly, when you're eighteen and nobody warns you about what's actually coming, then you find yourself sitting there in the exam room while the doctor is multitasking—using one hand for the exam and the other to hold a phone receiver—all while five medical students are crowded right in your face. It’s definitely not exactly a glamorous experience.😢 ha

But why on earth wouldn't those students be looking at the monitor?😉 😁

Can we please move this over to the platform used by the Democratic Party? I'd really like to cast my vote. It'll probably go to Dragan Džajić. 😁 😁

That’s why you shouldn't get vaccinated if you're dealing with an acute illness, running a fever, or just feeling under the weather.

Just a heads-up, it's pretty common to experience some flu-like symptoms after the shot—things like a fever, muscle aches, or a headache. Usually, though, these are pretty mild and tend to clear up within a day or two.

I honestly felt terrible for nearly two months after. It was rough.

Are you pretty sure the vaccine was what caused you to feel that way?

Michael Cox40 said:I’ve had two shots total. Both times, about ten days later, I ended up catching the worst flu imaginable.

The shot is usually given two months before flu season hits, so the virus isn't even around yet. Is it possible you just caught something else?😕

rustymoose54 said:The last time I had the flu was back in January 2000, and I almost ended up in the ER. Luckily, I had someone to drive me there.

In those brief moments when I felt slightly better, I actually found myself thinking about what flowers I'd want at my funeral. My own, I mean.

It was pretty grim, honestly, but I pulled through. And by the next season, I made sure to get my flu shot.👍

Same here! 😢
If that hadn't happened to me, I wouldn't believe it either!

rustymoose54 said:Come on, it's not like you actually count as one of the "older crowd" 😁

Look, if we're being honest, I AM older than you...😉 😁 😁

Anyway, dustycanyon6, let's not start getting paranoid here. 👎

rustymoose54 said:Healthy young people don't need the shot—it should just be for seniors and those with chronic conditions.

🙂 I might not be exactly young anymore, 😁 but I'm healthy.
A couple of years back, I caught the flu... and man, let me tell you, it was a total nightmare. 🙂 Since then, I've made sure to get vaccinated every single year.

I've got one! Any chance someone actually wants to buy it? 😁

I just finished reading a few articles today about what happens to food when you reheat it or cook it in a microwave, and honestly, I’m a little shaken up.

Maybe I'm just being paranoid! 🙄 🙄

I honestly don't even know what to say. I just got my Pap smear results back after seeing a specialist at a community health clinic (which I had to schedule two months in advance),
and I've been waiting almost three months total for this! 😲

👍
I'm really happy to hear that! Keeping my fingers crossed that it lasts!

Microwave energy isn't radioactive!!
Microwaves can't pass through metal, which is why they stay trapped inside the appliance's casing. As long as your microwave isn't broken, that radiation isn't leaking out anywhere.

A microwave works by selectively heating the water molecules found in food. It’s a totally different process than using a standard oven, where hot air from gas or electricity transfers heat to whatever you're cooking. Instead, the energy from the magnetron makes those water molecules vibrate incredibly fast, heating the food from the inside out while the air around it stays relatively cool.

So, basically, as long as you aren't sticking your head inside the machine, you'll be fine.
As for whether microwave radiation has any harmful effects on the food itself? Honestly, there's no proof of that, and it's a huge point of debate.
The reality is we've been using microwaves in American homes for decades now without much issue.

But you really need to drink that right after your workout, not wait until the next day!

And I seriously can't believe you don't even know what acetylsalicylic acid is.

🤣 🤣 🤣

Kenneth Sullivan58 said:Basically, does anyone actually know how to cure this?

If they did, they'd probably be walking away with a Nobel Prize by now.😉

Kenneth Hernandez67 said:And for everyone who’s been thinking about us and worrying... today was the hearing... it's finally over... I'll get the final decision on permanent guardianship in 15 days.🙂

That's what I'm talking about! 👋 👋
